As already described[mightandmagicx-legacy.ubi.com] on Monday, it was important to us to provide you this patch as quickly as possible, therefore it did not go through all the different “green light channels”, a patch normally needs to go through, in order to be an “official patch”. This is why the patch is labelled as an “unofficial patch”.

Unofficial patches are only available through the beta for Steam users[mightandmagicx-legacy.ubi.com] or through the download link on our blog for all other users (please note that the .exe from the download link will not work for steam users!).

Our patch log (please click on the download link on the blog[mightandmagicx-legacy.ubi.com] to see) looks like quite a lot of smaller bug fixes, doesn’t it. However please be aware, that fixing something here may break something there. So all in all, the team worked quite a bit last week, but please note that follow-up bugs may occur.

Please note that we worked on fixes regarding save/load issues, which is why we cannot guarantee that your save games work after the patch. If you want to keep your save games, you may want to create a copy of your save file in a different, separate folder.

Ugh. If I knew we were going to have to use UPlay... I would have never bought this game. I don't want to have to connect online. I like playing these games when I go places where I have no internet access. UPlay has always sucked and always will.

Okay I suppose its time to shelve this game - don't feel like starting over at current game-state - the combat is way too jerky and slow to put up with those initial steps again to be honest :(

For the record, one of my favorite aspects of the previous games in the series is the vast amount of skills which you can buy and train as you level them, I miss that a great deal. I didn't notice anything that replaces the "richness" that added to the games in the series.

Another improvement which would be helpful is to let the map point out where the traders are in the cities (once explored), and maybe have it point out who give you what quest.
